I love the grounds; they are so beautiful and serene. It made it easy to do nothing and just enjoy the nature sounds.

Linda B., Cincinnati, OH

Everything was amazing!!!

Gary E., Ogdensburg, NY

Thanks for continuing to make ‘Camp’ Camp a place for us to relax, unwind and be ourselves!!

Scott T., Chicago, IL

It’s a week I wait for every year.

Michael L., Tucson, AZ

Camp really is the “Best Time Ever!” Sounds corny, but it’s true.

Wendy H., Raleigh, NC

My friends never stop talking about it, and now I know why!

Jason S., Brooklyn, NY

The food was outstandingly amazing! …I loved that there were so many vegan options.

IlanaRei G., Malden, MA

I’ve traveled a lot, and I’ve never found another place as warm and welcoming as ‘Camp’ Camp; not even close!

David P., Endicott, NY

…one of the most supportive and LGBT-friendly environments I have ever experienced.

Warren H., New York, NY

This place changed my life. I am a better person because of Camp.

Geoff L., Los Angeles, CA

All the important things, the take-aways, I got from summer camp as a child remain still as an adult. I get a chance to make new friends, try new things, and rekindle my spirit.

Mary Beth K., Columbia, SC

Everyone was so friendly when we first arrived. I was hooked! …’Camp’ Camp feels like home.

Lisa M., Wallingford, CT

I’ve always felt welcome and included at Camp, perhaps more there than in many other places at home.

Jen V., Cincinnati, OH

…Everyone made me feel very welcome, from Staff to Campers.

Adam H., Lafayette, LA

I learned so much and created some beautiful things in my jewelry and pottery classes. We are very fortunate to have such amazing teachers in all of the activities at Camp.

Barry R., New York, NY

It is the most positive experience I participate in and makes my year!

Michael S., Astoria, NY

I’m not a terribly social person and large groups can make me uncomfortable. That being said, I never felt safer in a group of people so quickly before.

Shelley D., Nashville, TN

Totally fabulous. …The spirit of Camp is so joyful and fun and silly and accepting all at once.

Daphne B., Hamden, CT

You have built a wonderful community. …I came away very impressed.

Estelle D., Cambridge, MA

I laughed more in one week than I did all year.

Richard H., Montreal, QC

Cheers to all who put in such effort to make a safe, wonderful, and fun environment. Flawlessly executed direction and organization. …Extremely well done.

Heather L., Brookline, NH

I’ve never had as much fun anywhere as I do at Camp.

Linda R., Manchester, NH

It’s like I’ve been recharged. …It is the one place where I can be my truest self. You can’t put a price on that.

Michael G., Brooklyn, NY

It is the most fun I have all year. And I love the people.

Michelle R., Brighton, MA

I’ve been to festivals and conventions, and even camp as a kid, and been overwhelmed by the number of people, and felt lost in the shuffle. That didn’t happen here! Returning Campers and Staff, as well as other first-years, were very friendly. I never felt alone or isolated.

Nicole Y., Ann Arbor, MI

The diversity within our community is astounding, and I feel that everyone was welcome…and especially appreciate that the whole age spectrum of our community was included, from the energetic (sometimes scared) kids to our esteemed elders.

Lori M., Merriam, KS

Thank you all for the gift of a wonderful week. I appreciate your patience, care, generosity, understanding, attention to detail, hard work, creativity, openness, effort, and LOVE!

Thom H., Salem, MA

I love the Camp experience and always feel rejuvenated after attending.

Sherron W., Edison, NJ

I love this place!

Stephanie V., Exeter, NH

I met some really amazing and very special people that I otherwise would have never crossed paths with. My heart doubled in size in just one week.

Gina Y., Houston, TX

With all the talk about “community,” I’ve never experienced a feeling of gay community anywhere but at ‘Camp’ Camp. That alone is enough of a draw for me.

Bill S., Norristown, PA

The openness of everyone’s attitudes and acceptance was intoxicating.

Brandon W., New Orleans, LA
